I know Im not really allowed to start new topics on this forum, but with the Barrow area of this website non-existent i feel i have to post this particular one on here. Anyhoo, ive been told numerous times that your mark gleeson is on his way to our team to replace Andy Ellis? Despite the rumour being as strong as it is; i somehow just cant see it? Have you guys herd anything?

find that a bit strange

He has signed a two year deal with Fax, it will cost a penny or two to get him

last thread saying that was removed.

I would guess this one will disapear as well.. though it shouldnt thats whats message boards are for arent they? Speculation and all that.

Glees or Beswick id heard, cant see it happening tho, but if it does you can have Beswick

he's under contract.

Fax would want a lot of cash and/ /or a lucrative swap deal (2 players min IMO)

Very unlikely imo.

that why ours is dying a death too.

How dare we speculate on player movement, who do we think we are, no doubt this thread will disappear too.

Glad its not just me who has noticed it and is sick to death of petty thread closing for fear of nuclear war.

On topic: We have 3 hookers tbh each should be playing 80 minutes not 40 max, letting one go will not lessen team strength, Ellis played 80 mins for Barrow, worked well for them.

I just don't think this will happen. Des has said publicly on a few occasions that he won't 'buy out' players (or coaches) that are still under contract. The Oldham 5 and Bauer were offered to Barrow RL in order to get their respective club wage bills down, so no transfer fees were due at all.

I've heard a couple of names for our replacement hooker which are far more likely IMO.

Any of them signed on for next season? All the players at Oldham had contracts to the end of this season, Been that Barrow "took over" the contracts surely the same time-scales apply.

Then again, I read somewhere else that they were technically on loan, either way. Are their contracts up now?

Not like they're short of cash though is it?



Surely you wouldn't want any of our current squad going to any of the main opposition teams?

I'd prefer it to be Beswick if it did go through. But i've also heard a rumour about Matt Diskin going to Barrow, because he won't get much game time at Leeds now Buderus (Spelling*) is fit.
